With this simple patch I could fix my problem, what do you think?
Is this ok to be added? I guess some connectors may not have the
crtc linked at probbing stage but this is handled.

Subject: [PATCH] drm: Introduce crtc->mode_valid() callback

Introduce a new crtc callback which validates the probbed modes,
just like connector->mode_valid() does.

Basing this decision on whichever crtc might happen to be driving the
connector at the time is not what we want.

This would need to loop over all the crtc that could potentially drive
the connector, and reject the mode only if all the crtcs rejected it.

This is a faq, and your patch isn't the solution. Adding John (who made a
different spin on this, differently broken).

I guess I to write a todo.rst entry about this ...
